MGR Branch Out Into BRDC Formula 4

Leading junior single-seater outfit Mark Godwin Racing (MGR) have become the latest team to sign up for the BRDC Formula 4 Championship.

The team, who will run two cars in F4 in 2013, have enjoyed great success since being founded in 2010, taking a race win in their debut season in the Protyre Formula Renault BARC Championship in 2011, before going on to challenge for this year’s title with Josh Webster.

The team currently have four drivers in the top eight of the BARC standings, while they also narrowly missed out on the Intersteps championship with Matt Mason.

“We’re planning on running at least two F4 cars next year and have already received a lot of interest from drivers straight out of karting, looking to take that next step on the ladder,” said team principal Mark Godwin.

“MGR has only existed for two seasons but the formidable squad run by Mark Godwin has already made a big impact in junior single seaters and I’m sure they will do the same in F4 by being a front running team from the off,” added Jonathan Palmer, F4 Series Director.
